too hot for chips.

well, hotpocalypse is in full swing. today's forecast includes a high of 97, with a feels-like 105. that's degrees. farenheit. we've also got an "excessive heat warning", which i read is only issued for very extreme combinations of heat and humidity.

now, i know what you southerners are thinking. "that's not so bad. y'all are a bunch of babies. it's worse here." but let me tell you about a little something called an "air quality warning." we've got one of those going, too. i don't know what it means in science terms, but i do know that this morning the entire city smelled like one gigantic, garbage-y queef. i sidestepped a pile of vomit on my way to work, which sparked a lengthy chicken-and-egg debate inside my head.

all of that being said, i'd like to pass along this article featuring the city's best frozen treat offerings. if you can bear to be outside over the next few days, maybe you can check out these spots for some relief.
